Edinson Volquez still is well under the radar. The numbers don't lie. The numbers make the case that he has been the best pitcher in baseball thus far in '08. The log is eye-opening. He has worked 35 innings, 24 hits, five runs, 42 K's. He has yet to allow more than five hits in all six of his starts, and has not allowed more than a single earned run in all six starts. Jon Lieber has not made a start all season, so his innings will be limited. As a division winner last year, the Phillies were 3-9 with him as a starter. Lots of good numbers for the Reds against Lieber, and we look for them to win comfortably at home.
